A young boy wearing glasses sits cross-legged on a white tiled floor, dressed in orange robes with a red sash and a necklace of rudraksha beads. He has white vertical marks on his forehead and holds a long brass cone-shaped vessel in both hands, looking down at it. Around him sit other robed participants in orange, with more of them partly visible at the edges. Steel bowls and steel pots filled with liquid sit on the floor in front of them, and a blue-lidded plastic container holds a small brass object on a purple cloth. The setting suggests a ritual sprinkling or abhishekam preparation.

Each boy holds a tall brass cone. In front of them are long rows of silver and brass vessels, bowls, and small brass lamps arranged on raised stone platforms, with white flowers and a small brass bell visible among the items. The scene appears to be a puja or abhishekam setting.2013-08-12May 20 20132013-05-20August 12 20132013-08-12
